ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: This chemical is a skin irritant and an allergen. It can be absorbed through the skin and upon inhalation of dust. Toxic fumes are evolved when this material is heated to decomposition or upon contact with acid or acid fumes.
4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessary
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
The disposition and metabolism of 14C-labeled 4-chloro-2-nitroaniline (CNA) was studied in male F344 rats following oral or intravenous (iv) administration. The gastrointestinal absorption of CNA was found to be near complete and was not affected by the dose in the range studied (0.788-78.8 mumol/kg). Following either oral or iv administration, CNA was rapidly distributed throughout the tissues and showed no marked affinity for any particular tissue. [14C]CNA was rapidly cleared by metabolism and excretion in urine and to a lesser extent in feces...

12.2 Persistence and degradability
AEROBIC: 4-Chloro-2-nitroaniline, present at 100 ppm, reached 0% of its theoretical BOD in 2 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 ppm and the Japanese MITI test(1).
12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
A 6 week bioconcentration study obtained BCF values of 7.5-13.2 and 8.0-13.4 in carp (Cyprinus carpio) for concentrations of 4-chloro-2-nitroaniline of 100 and 10 ppb, respectively(1). According to a classification scheme(2), these BCF values suggest bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
12.4 Mobility in soil
The Koc of 4-chloro-2-nitroaniline is estimated as 720(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.72(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 4-chloro-2-nitroaniline is expected to have low mobility in soil. Anilines are expected to bind strongly to humus or organic matter in soils due to the high reactivity of the aromatic amino group(4,5), suggesting that mobility may be much lower in some soils(SRC). The log Koc of 4-chloro-2-nitroaniline was measured as 2.30 in Yangtze river sediment (37.1% sand, 49.3% silt, 13.6% clay, 1.28% organic carbon, pH 7.44)(6). The log Koc was also measured as 3.68 in modified clay(7). These values give Koc values of 200 and 4800, respectively(SRC).
12.5 Other adverse effects

13.Disposal considerations
13.1 Disposal methods
Product
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Contaminated packaging
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
